RutileAnti-Slip and Anti-Skid Surfaces
Garnet is used as a highly effective anti-slip or anti-skid additive in coatings and paints, increasing the level of surface traction in these products.
Road Pavement Surfacing
As an anti-skid/anti-slip additive, garnet adds the surface tension needed to improve friction and increase the safety surfaces, while also helping to create an extremely durable surface. Garnet serves as an anti-slip additive for a wide range of road pavement surfaces, including:
- Bus, cycle, transit and fire lanes
- School and pedestrian crossings
- Taxi & bus stops and pickup areas
- Carparks
Anti-slip surface treatments created with garnet additives can also help with creating clear and colourful demarcations and enhance the fuel and oil-resistance of a road surface.
Commercial and Industrial Flooring
Garnet can also be used in commercial and industrial flooring scenarios, serving as a broadcast aggregate that adds the requisite surface tension to create a safe and slip-free surface.
After rolling out a floor coating, contractors can broadcast garnet aggregate into the coating, then back roll the floor to embed the garnet in the flooring.
